Title: R6 blue dot question..
Post by: gyrfalcon on March 24, 2018, 06:46:34 PM
Hello,

I have recently purchased R6 calipers and a R1 master for my 1989 FJ.

I ordered new seals for the blue dots and have them installed. It was some time ago that I took them apart
for cleaning and didn't note the orientation of the "arrow" engraved in the bronze colored retention plates.

Does somebody know if they should be pointing towards the bleeder or the other way on those calipers??

Thanks

They should point in the direction of the wheel rotation.

Ok Thanks for that!

Looks like that will be pointing towards the bleeder then. I haven't tried to mount them on the bike yet
but that seems right.

Thanks again!
